For an invertible linear operator $T$ on a Hilbert space $H$, put \[ \alpha(T^*,T) := -T^{*2}T^2 + (1+r^2) T^* T - r^2 I, \] where $I$ stands for the identity operator on $H$ and $r\in (0,1)$; this expression comes from applying Agler's…

In this article, by considering $T=(T_1,\dots, T_d)$, an $d$-tuple of commuting contractions on a Hilbert space $\mathcal{H}$, we study $T$-Toeplitz operators which consists of bounded operators $X$ on $\mathcal{H}$ such that \[ T_i^*XT_i=X…
